Badge Requests

What does it take? It changes for each gym! Normally, the games increase in difficulty as you progress, but that wouldn't be any fun if characters could just as easily take on the Gyms that are supposed to be for top trainers only. THEREFORE, the gym leaders aren't going to be pushovers like in the games! In order to win a badge, the mods will take into account your current roster and the attacks and advantages to see whether your pokémon is strong enough to win a badge or not.
Each gym leader has a Regular Team of pokemon and an Elite Team of pokemon you can challenge. It's up to a trainer to decide which team to challenge, but if you take on the Elite Team of six level 100 Pokemon, you'll receive double the prize money. The items, however, are not doubled. Excellent for trainers looking for the extra challenge or those looking to make money fast.
!!! Badges must be mod approved. To earn a badge, please comment on this post. Please don't ask for more than two badges to be approved at once!

They will be compensated for their work as Gym Leaders with a stipend that will cover building costs, labor (the Leader's and any Trainers they may employ), and rewards for victorious challengers. We ask that Aurora Gym Leaders think carefully about the location of their Gym and the difficulty level they wish to present challengers. We also ask that they create their own Badge Request page like this one so that others can request battles with them. To officially request an Aurora League Gym, fill out the provided template and comment here. |
Please use this form to request a badge or a showdown with the Elite Four! Post your request as a comment to this post. Badges will generally be processed once per week, on either Wednesday or during the weekend. Please try not to PM or IM mods about badges (including elite challenges) unless your request has gone unanswered for more than a week.
!!! Please request badges as your character is actually in the general area of the gym!
!!! To preserve the spirit of the game, obtaining badges using recently-inherited Pokémon (ie, Pokemon received from dropped characters) that massively outlevel your own is discouraged. If this happens, you may be asked by the badge mod to revise your team. Inherited Pokemon that your character has had for a while and are the same level as the rest of your character's team are fine to use!
!!! Remember that you must fight all four members of the Elite Four and Champion Lance in a row. You may heal your Pokémon between battles and take a short break, but you cannot leave without ending your challenge.

Badge/Gym Leader: Whitney for the Plain Badge
Elite/Regular: Regular Team
Team: Team of Gremlin the Rattata, Grindy the Kingler, and Dean the Emboar, with backup consisting of Cofgodas the Raticate and Fowi the Luxray
Battle Details: Dimitri is going to do his Absolute Best to come in at a time where not a lot of people around while Gym hours are still going, hiding as best he can in a hoodie, and hoping no one looks too closely at him and "recognizes" him as either a member of TEXO (he isn't) or the guy that was on the Cooking Contest episode (he is). That's going to fail almost the second he removes his hoodie and some trainers in Whitney's gym may possibly fangirl, not counting anyone else who hears of him being there.
So, like, he'll be honest: not loving that. Still, best as he can, he focuses on the match... although only after releasing one little bonus Pokemon that won't be a part of his fighting team. It might be hard to see what Pokemon it is, considering it tries to hide behind Dimitri's leg the second it's released from its ball...
Whitney may appreciate that Dimitri also busts out a Normal type Pokemon for the first go around with her Girafarig: Gremlin the Rattata.
Dimitri has tried to attend all the matches Chip has done before, so he knows that Girafarig has some psychic tricks up its sleeve. Thus, he does his best to make sure that Gremlin uses all the tricks in the book to buy himself time so that he doesn't get hit with Flinch or Confusion from one of Girafarig's attacks. This means abusing Quick Attack to get hits in before Girafarig does, and Bite for both that type advantage and hopes of a flinch in turn. If Whitney tries to pull Girafarig back, that's time for Pursuit, and if Gremlin is on the ropes, that's when Endeavor is brought out before followed up with a Quick Attack to try and pull Gremlin out ahead.
Dimitri will pull Gremlin out of the match if it looks like his rat is going to Faint, and finish things off with Cofgodas.
Up against Whitney's Clefable, Dimitri lets loose Grindy the Kingler. Grindy is just full of murder, as it turns out, and he's glad to go right into it with a Razor Shell which acts as something of a setup for the following Metal Claw. Much like before, Dimitri and his Pokemon want to finish this quick before Whitney's Clefable can bust something out like Sing, although they'll use Protect against her as an experiment in seeing if that helps.
Should Grindy look like he's going to faint, that's when Fowi the Luxray steps in, ready to just zap the shit out of everything.
And finally... Against Whitney's Miltank, whose power Dimitri has already witnessed, there's really only one solution in his mind. That would be Dean the Emboar, who strengthens up with a Defense Curl and then... It's Rollout VS Rollout, a battle to see whose strength can push through as the pair slam into each other again and again all throughout the arena. It's really just a matter of pushing through on strength, although Dean's higher level and Defense Curl do add a bit more power to his own attack. If both Pokemon manage to stay standing by the end of this high impact exchange, Dean will clean up by utilizing his Fighting strength with an Arm Thrust or three.
Win or lose, Dimitri still approaches Whitney after the battle to reveal what little Pokemon was watching all of this: a baby Miltank, not even old enough to have grown horns or udders! Dimitri wants Gaibhenenn the Miltank to properly meet Whitney's own, and tells the little cow Pokemon that this is what they are aiming for. Gaibhenenn is quite sparkly eyed about it all, with this being the first proper battle she's seen.
...Also please don't cry, Whitney, Dimitri doesn't know how to deal with that.

Unfortunately, Whitney totally cries. Like, super extra hard because of his baby Miltank.... it's just so cute and this is so sweet and wholesome, she's so MOVED (moo-ved?)........... sorry, Dimitri.
But hey!
Plain Badge approved!
